The Member Login Portal extension for Our Team Showcase allows WordPress site administrators to extend membership to selected Team Members registered in the Our Team Showcase plugin, and post content on the site that is accessible to exclusively to them.
This plugin is ideal for companies that want to share:
- Company best-practices

WP Admin Info: How The Member Login Portal Works
When the Login Portal is installed on a WordPress site, it creates the Pages: Login, Logout and Profile for you to edit and add to your menu.
On your WordPress Post and Page editing pages, a new box appears where the site admin can select which groups of Team Members to access that content. The default for published content that isn’t selected is to remain public.
Admins can also manage user names and passwords, send password reset links and new Membership invitations to Team Members, using the email associated with their Our Team Showcase profile email.
